How do I convert an HTML template to Vue?

3 steps per component: 1) Copy HTML section into a ` ` block in a new `.vue` file. 2) Copy the relevant CSS into ` `. 3) Replace static text with `{{ prop }}` and define props with `defineProps(['title', 'description'])`. For lists: replace repeated HTML with `v-for`. For conditional sections: use `v-if`.

How do I use CSS from an HTML template in Vue?

Option 1: Global import in main.js — `import './assets/template.css'` — CSS variables and base styles apply everywhere. Option 2: Scoped styles in each component — paste the component's CSS into ` ` — styles are isolated to that component. Option 3: Both — global CSS for tokens (:root variables), scoped for component-specific styles.

What Vue features replace vanilla JavaScript from HTML templates?

Vanilla JS → Vue equivalents: `document.querySelector` → `ref()` + template refs. `classList.toggle` → `:class` binding. `addEventListener` → `@click`, `@change`. `fetch()` API → same (or use Pinia for state management). `IntersectionObserver` → keep as-is in `onMounted()`. Most vanilla JS from UIXDraft templates drops into `onMounted()` unchanged.

Is Vue or React better for HTML template projects?

Both work equally well for converting HTML templates. Vue has advantages: HTML in ` ` is nearly identical to regular HTML (no class→className conversion), scoped styles are built-in (no CSS Modules setup), and the learning curve from HTML/CSS is shorter. React has advantages: larger ecosystem, more job market demand, better TypeScript support. Choose based on your team's existing skills.

HTML Template → Vue Project — Step by Step

Set Up Vue Project

`npm create vue@latest my-project` — select TypeScript (optional), Vue Router (yes), Pinia (if needed). Install dependencies with `npm install`.

Import Global CSS

Copy the template's CSS into `src/assets/main.css`. Import it in `src/main.js`: `import './assets/main.css'`. CSS custom properties are available globally across all components.

Create Layout Components

Extract NavBar.vue, Footer.vue, and PageWrapper.vue from the template HTML. Add `<slot />` in the wrapper for page content. Use in `App.vue`.

Convert Page Sections to Components

Hero.vue, FeatureGrid.vue, TestimonialsSection.vue. Each gets its own `<template>`, `<script setup>`, and `<style scoped>` blocks. Pass data as props.

Replace Static Content with Data

Use `v-for` for repeating cards: `<Card v-for="item in items" :key="item.id" v-bind="item" />`. Use `v-if` for conditional sections. Connect to Pinia store or fetch from API.
